I’m just finishing off a job I had last summer writing conservation management plans for several National Trust castle and mansion gardens, and this photo has briefly transported me back from the cold and the rain to more serene days of glorious summer…
Many of you who follow my blog will be familiar with the beautiful photographs I often post by Mike Alexander. I’m very proud to announce that my brother Rod has built a website called Scapeimages.com to host hundreds of Mike’s stunning photographs, where they can be bought, licensed and downloaded, or simply enjoyed by browsing through such a fantastic catalogue of work!
I’m sure you’ll agree that it’s about time that Mikes wonderful work is available to the world! Do your senses a favour and have a look 🙂
I rather like this photo by Mike Alexander, taken between the winter storms on a beach called Hells Mouth on the west coast of Wales
On the West Wales coast. Squally, stormy, bright sunshine one moment, dark ominous clouds and hail the next, but always very, very windy…
This song is the title track from my second album “Round River” and once again Mike Alexander has treated us to some of his best photographs of the stunning Welsh landscape to go with it, hope you enjoy 🙂
Here’s a collection of some of Mike Alexander’s best photographs, music by me, the title track of my first album “Time Stands Still”
I went back to the mountains this week. Out for a walk in the quiet forest as the late winter afternoon light grew dim, long before I could see it I could hear the sound of the river torrent and the rapids swollen by so much recent rain. And then as I emerged through the dense pine branches dripping with a gentle rain, a bright river of blue and white light appeared and the roar grew deafening in complete contrast to the silence of the surrounding forest…
…..and it is very unfortunate for the owner of this business and hundreds of others.
Dramatic photos brought to you by Mike Alexander
Not a bad place to wander down to when the storm subsides (it’s been very wild here lately)
